Description: This publication revolves around shadows,
shadow theatre and silhouettes as well as stories based on
traditional folklore, contemporary short stories, literary works and
simple narratives, all expressed with economy of means. The

Greece, but it also highlights some examples of great animation
classics, namely the works of Ladislas Starewitch and Lotte Reiniger, as
well as reinterpretations by noteworthy contemporary artists
such as Haluk Akakçe, Nathalie Djurberg, William Kentridge, Katariina
Lillqvist, Jockum Nordström, Christiana Soulou,
